The halls smelled really good on Friday during the Cookie Lab in Mrs. Schmitt's Foods I Class. The students fill out a Mise En Place Sheet before the lab and then a Lab Report after they have completed their lab to review what they did well and what skills need to be improved upon.
Panini Food Labs were a success during Mrs. Schmitt's Foods I Class last week.

Foods I Class making breakfast. We are nearing the end of our Foods I Class and the students are doing so well in their labs. Before they may start a lab they find a recipe and then fill out a Mise En Place Sheet which helps them read through the directions and prepare to have everything in place. Mise En Place is French and roughly translates as "put in place or set in place." After the lab is completed and clean up is finished the students individually fill out a lab report on how smoothly their lab went. They write down all of the prepping terms they performed and how well they worked in a group. "There is a lot to having a successful lab." said Mrs. Schmitt
The 6th graders are working hard in Mrs. Sinnwell's chemical interactions lab making observations of the various chemical compounds. Nice job students working together to figure out the mystery mixture.
These two third-graders were on the radio! They made a service announcement for Mrs. Hoskins third grade Cold Weather Gear Drive. They are collecting: snowpants, coats, hats, gloves, scarves, and boots. They can be used (clean and gently used) or new. Donation drop places are elementary school, ACE Hardware, Dungey's, Super 8, and 95.1 The Bull (New Hampton).
